What you will see
Yei is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 12:39:42 local time, the Moon hides 30.6% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 11:27:10 and ends at 13:46:54, 2 h 20 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 74° above the horizon, towards the north-west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Yei.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 1,905 km north-east of Yei.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Aslam, about 1,918 km north-east, where totality lasts 1 m 47 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
Eye safety guide: Never look at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses, except during totality.
